Born and raised in Japan, YUKIKO has been digging for all sorts of exotic records for over 25 years. She started DJing in Okinawa in 2010 but was forced to take a hiatus when she moved to Michigan in 2012. In 2017, she reignited her love for DJing and has been playing for the B-boy community and at dance battles in Detroit, in addition to playing at numerous music festivals, bars, clubs, and art foundations. Since she started to play for the dancer community, she established her own dance event "Inspiration Exchange" from 2019. Her vision is to bring back the connection with music and dance and create a cultural and spiritual sanctuary on the floor. Recently relocated to Chicago, Yukiko believes her records can take her anywhere and she is always following the spirits in her crate.
